On Wednesday (June 18), Erica Nichols, the manager of The Bluebird Cafe, posted a video where she addressed rumors that Olivia Rodrigo‘s team requested the removal of Taylor Swift photos when she performed at the intimate Nashville venue. “We did have a filming with Olivia Rodrigo here. Olivia’s people did not ask us to remove an image of Taylor Swift. Nobody did,” Nichols clarified. “We removed an image of Taylor Swift that was in a position where the filming was taking place. When we have filmings, we are required legally to remove images that are under copyright. We don’t own those images, so we cannot give permission for those images to be used in any kind of broadcast. That’s the sole reason that the photograph was removed from the place it stood.” The rumor started after a video circulated online where an employee claimed that the club removed “any visible sign of Taylor Swift before [Rodrigo] performed there in 2023.” (People)
